Relevance to music and video

THE RELEVANCE TO THE LYRICS AND VIDEO?

When looking at the lyrics to Lets dance and them comparing it to the video the relevance of the video is all there. Within the song Bowie sings of dancing and being free where as in the beginning of the video we see two workers being put to their paces, you then see them being free and climbing the hill looking over the city as if they were free and dancing to the music. The red shoes are the main symbol in not only the song but the music video, when we think about the colour red we think of lust, anger and danger which is shown within the video. To add to the thought of their freedom they stamp and crush the red shoes at the end top symbolize a new beginning of freedom and life.
